Only register ask for help requests in the scheduler unblock and yield
operations. The actual ask for help operation is carried out during
_Thread_Do_dispatch() on a processor related to the thread. This yields
a better separation of scheduler instances. A thread of one scheduler
instance should not be forced to carry out too much work for threads on
other scheduler instances.

This enables to call this scheduler operation for all scheduler nodes
available to a thread.

Rename the scheduler ask for help stuff since this will be replaced step
by step with a second generation of the scheduler helping protocol.
Keep the old one for now in parallel to reduce the patch set sizes.

Do not use a deadline value of zero to indicate a job cancellation. Use
a dedicated scheduler operation for this.

Provide the scheduler node to initialize or destroy to the corresponding
operations. This makes it possible to have more than one scheduler node
per thread.

The thread priority is manifest in two independent areas. One area is
the user visible thread priority along with a potential thread queue.
The other is the scheduler. Currently, a thread priority update via
_Thread_Change_priority() first updates the user visble thread priority
and the thread queue, then the scheduler is notified if necessary. The
priority is passed to the scheduler via a local variable. A generation
counter ensures that the scheduler discards out-of-date priorities.
This use of a local variable ties the update in these two areas close
together. For later enhancements and the OMIP locking protocol
implementation we need more flexibility. Add a thread priority
information block to Scheduler_Node and synchronize priority value
updates via a sequence lock on SMP configurations.

Introduce map/unmap priority scheduler operations to map thread priority
values from/to the user domain to/from the scheduler domain. Use the
map priority operation to validate the thread priority. The EDF
schedulers use this new operation to distinguish between normal
priorities and priorities obtain through a job release.

By convention, thread priorities must be integers in RTEMS. Smaller
values represent more important threads.

The following scheduler operations return a thread in need for help
- unblock,
- change priority, and
- yield.
A thread in need for help is a thread that encounters a scheduler state
change from scheduled to ready or a thread that cannot be scheduled in
an unblock operation. Such a thread can ask threads which depend on
resources owned by this thread for help.
Add a new ask for help scheduler operation. This operation is used by
_Scheduler_Ask_for_help() to help threads in need for help returned by
the operations mentioned above. This operation is also used by
_Scheduler_Thread_change_resource_root() in case the root of a resource
sub-tree changes. A use case is the ownership change of a resource.
In case it is not possible to schedule a thread in need for help, then
the corresponding scheduler node will be placed into the set of ready
scheduler nodes of the scheduler instance. Once a state change from
ready to scheduled happens for this scheduler node it may be used to
schedule the thread in need for help.

Add and use SCHEDULER_OPERATION_DEFAULT_GET_SET_AFFINITY.

Rename _Scheduler_Update() to _Scheduler_Update_priority(). Add
parameter for the new thread priority to avoid direct usage of
Thread_Control::current_priority in the scheduler operation.

Replace _Scheduler_Allocate() with _Scheduler_Node_initialize(). Remove
the return status and thus the node initialization must be always
successful.
Rename _Scheduler_Free() to _Scheduler_Node_destroy().

The function to change a thread priority was too complex. Simplify it
with a new scheduler operation. This increases the average case
performance due to the simplified logic. The interrupt disabled
critical section is a bit prolonged since now the extract, update and
enqueue steps are executed atomically. This should however not impact
the worst-case interrupt latency since at least for the Deterministic
Priority Scheduler this sequence can be carried out with a wee bit of
instructions and no loops.
Add _Scheduler_Change_priority() to replace the sequence of
- _Thread_Set_transient(),
- _Scheduler_Extract(),
- _Scheduler_Enqueue(), and
- _Scheduler_Enqueue_first().
Delete STATES_TRANSIENT, _States_Is_transient() and
_Thread_Set_transient() since this state is now superfluous.
With this change it is possible to get rid of the
SCHEDULER_SMP_NODE_IN_THE_AIR state. This considerably simplifies the
implementation of the new SMP locking protocols.

Rename scheduler per-thread information into scheduler nodes using
Scheduler_Node as the base type. Use inheritance for specialized
schedulers.
Move the scheduler specific states from the thread control block into
the scheduler node structure.
Validate the SMP scheduler node state transitions in case RTEMS_DEBUG is
defined.

The thread control block contains fields that point to application
configuration dependent memory areas, like the scheduler information,
the API control blocks, the user extension context table, the RTEMS
notepads and the Newlib re-entrancy support. Account for these areas in
the configuration and avoid extra workspace allocations for these areas.
This helps also to avoid heap fragementation and reduces the per thread
memory due to a reduced heap allocation overhead.

Do not allocate the scheduler control structures from the workspace.
This is a preparation step for configuration of clustered/partitioned
schedulers on SMP.
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Scheduler operations must be free of a global scheduler context to
enable partitioned/clustered scheduling.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
Delete global variables _Priority_Major_bit_map and _Priority_Bit_map.
This makes it possible to use multiple priority scheduler instances for
example with clustered/partitioned scheduling on SMP.
